Message:

I have code something like this:

<?

    $a="localhost";

    function body(){

        global $a;

        echo $a;

    }



    function head(){

        global $a;

        echo $a;

    }



    function footer(){

        global $a;

        echo $a;

    }

?>

is there any way to define the global variable in one place and make the variable $a accessible in all the functions at once? without making use of global $a; more?

My Answer:
To declare a global variable in PHP, you can use the `global` keyword followed by the variable name inside a function. Here is an example:

php
$globalVar = "I am a global variable";

function myFunction() {
global $globalVar;
echo $globalVar;
}

myFunction(); // Output: I am a global variable


In this example, `$globalVar` is declared outside of the function and then accessed inside the function using the `global` keyword. This allows the variable to be accessed and modified within the function as if it were a local variable.
